it has recently occurred to me that with Sia's 'Cheap Thrills' climbing to #2 and it unlikely to reach the top spot there have been exactly 300 singles to peak at the 2nd best position in the UK charts since the year 2000. which gives us the perfect opportunity to rate all of them

it's a bit much to be rating 300 songs at once so the rate will be done in 6 parts. the first part is shown below.

standard rating rules and geographic charges apply. one 11 and one -1 allowed. marks that are multiples of 0.5 allowed excluding -0.5 and 10.5. leave any song you don't know out if you want.
